Only $1.70 to check out the whole thing, in honor of Blue Blood's 17 year anniversary.

Doing It Like a Rabbit – A Really Big Rabbit with a Cartoon Girlfriend
Doing It Like a Rabbit – A Really Big Rabbit with a Cartoon Girlfriend
by Amelia G : April 30th, 2010
The Inquisitr reports that one Annette Edwards of Worcester, UK is the world record holder for breeding the largest bunny rabbit, a Continental Giant named Darius. This would be more newsworthy if Annette Edwards had not also bred Alice, the rabbit Darius took the title from now that he is longer than four foot three inches. This would be less newsworthy if rabbit breeder extraordinaire Annette Edwards had not also undergone plastic surgery to look as much like Jessica Rabbit as possible.For those of you wondering who Jessica Rabbit is, she was the va-va-voom girlfriend of the accused cartoon bunny in the 1988 film Who Framed Roger Rabbit?. Who Framed Roger Rabbit? was ground-breaking in its mix of live action from human actors and animation from Toon Town. Director Robert Zemeckis has made extensive pioneering use of special effects technology in a spectrum of movies including Back to the Future, Forrest Gump, Death Becomes Her, Polar Express, and Beowulf. In Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Roger’s honey Jessica is a curvy redhead who claims she is not bad; she is just drawn that way. Jessica has a sexy smoky voice, probably voiced by an oddly uncredited Kathleen Turner, and exactly what you’d expect from a dame in a noir frame-up. So anyway, that is who Annette Edwards is channeling with her plastic . . .

Why is MySpace shooting itself in the foot blocking so many sites?
I know social media pundits are all going on about what is causing MySpace to falter and a lot of the blame is being placed on Facebook and a bit on Twitter, but I think the difficulties come from within the way MySpace manages its own FOX Interactive properties. Their biz dev people really ought to be paying less attention to what Facebook and Twitter are up to and more attention to how they themselves are doing business.
For example, why is MySpace blocking so many sites? There is no point to me having 60k+ "friend" on there, if half the sites I might want to post a link to -- including my personal site -- are blocked and maligned as a matter of some sort of policy. I thought the site concept was a profile which was supposed to be *MY*space, so what the heck is up with MySpace calling lots of links "spam" or "phishing" or some such nonsense, when that's false to a libelous degree? Sooner or later, someone is probably going to take them to court for this sort of libel and a class action could even be put together. And, really, what is the benefit to MySpace?
And don't tell me they are blocking mild nudity because I totally see straight up adult sites with *full* nudity posting their actual updates on here, with no impediment.

Because Rielle Hunter was the interviewee, I watched Oprah on TiVo last night. It was only my second time watching Oprah because I’ve always believed that she was one of those things like chick lit which turn women into the weaker sex. I think I’ve been mistaken on this because, in point of fact, Oprah is an impressive nuanced interviewer, with a brilliant balance of coming across compassionate enough for her subjects to reveal themselves, without seeming like she is ever just giving someone a pass for bad behavior or opinions either. </p> The obvious question, when someone like John Edwards betrays his marriage in a way which is so dangerous for his career, is why, even if he was unhappy, why? I was interested to see how Rielle Hunter came across on Oprah because she is obviously a set-the-world-on-fire compelling woman. I know most of the country is interested in Rielle Hunter (if they are interested in Rielle Hunter) because of her affair (and possible sex tape) with presidential candidate John Edwards. I must confess, however, that my interest is as a huge Jay McInerney fan.
Before he was a famous novelist and short story writer, Jay McInerney was a remarkable New York city scenester who cut quite a swathe through society, literary, nightclub, and fashion circles with his very successful womanizing. He is currently . . .

South Park Creators Killed
South Park Creators Killed
by Amelia G : April 22nd, 2010
All I really wanted was an Okama Gamesphere, but, instead, the 200th and 201st episodes of South Park were an uneasy mishmash of most of the characters from past shows. The most noticeable absences were Chef and Towelie. No Terrance and Philip either, I think, but no loss there. As Isaac Hayes left over, as I recall, a dispute over Scientology, that probably makes sense, but forgetting Towelie the day after 4/20 seems like a bit of an oversight. Vernon Chatman, who provides the voice of the stoned towel, did work on South Park episode 200 as both a producer and a voice. I have no idea where I’m going with the Towelie tangent.Anyway, I’ve been thinking South Park really got its mojo back with episodes like the burn-Hot-Topic-down story The Ungroundable and the Facebook send-up You Have 0 Friends. The kinda non-story storyline of marching out pre-used characters for episode 200 and 201 was only made more excruciating with the censored out drawing of Mohammad and being dragged out to two weeks. The idea of a CENSORED block over the Mohammad drawing was kind of humorous, but the 201 edition even bleeped the name Mohammad, as well as the episode wrap-up I-learned-something-today speech. WTF? Matt Stone and Trey Parker explained the . . .

Pornstar Little Lupe Courtroom Drama Saves Fan
Pornstar Little Lupe Courtroom Drama Saves Fan
by Amelia G : April 16th, 2010
Although the photo at the right does not show her in a red cape with boots, Lupe Fuentes should really be wearing a Mighty Mouse costume right about now. Last week, she flew from Spain to Puerto Rico to give crucial testimony on behalf of her fan Carlos Simon-Timmerman.See Carlos Simon-Timmerman took a trip to Venezuela and made the error in judgment of buying a DVD called Little Lupe The Innocent, Don’t be Fooled by her Baby Face . . . at a flea market. On his way back to New York, he was arrested during a stopover in San Juan and his DVDs were seized. A flea market pirate DVD is not likely to have a lot of information on the packaging about who produced the videos or photos or how to get in touch with them. So Carlos Simon-Timmerman spent months in jail, awaiting trial on charges of possessing and transporting child pornography, crimes which could result in a twenty year stretch in prison. Fortunately for him, Assistant Public Defender Héctor L. Ramos-Vega and his legal team know that the thing MySpace is most effective for is getting in touch with pornstars. They contacted Lupe Fuentes aka Zuleidy Lapiedra aka Little Lupe and she agreed to come to Puerto Rico.
Lupe Fuentes was really the last hope the defense . . .

Blue Blood Magazine Covergirl Cherry (PICS)
Blue Blood magazine covergirl Cherry Jason is a favorite with me and Forrest Black and we all enjoyed this shoot in her home. We've known Cherry for a long time and she is always fun and gorgeous and cool. I should really bust out the film scanner and look for the negatives from our earliest film shoots with her because she is just amazing. Full series in Blue Blood VIP.

Should goths kill emos and eat their flesh?
Should goths kill emos and eat their flesh?
by Amelia G : April 13th, 2010
Maxim Golovatskikh might be hot and in a band, but he is a butcher. Well, actually a year ago that was pretty literally true, on multiple levels, but he has been in jail awaiting trial since then. See Maxim Golovatskikh was a goth boy in a band who worked as a butcher to pay his rent in a gothic group house in St Petersburg. Unfortunately, it was Maxim Golovatskikh’s misfortune to have a cute emo girl get all hot for him. Cute emo Karina Barduchian was so into Maxim Golovatskikh that she kept right on going over to his place, even afer her mother forbade her to see him. The problem was he and his housemates were all goth-identified, but this Karina Barduchian chick was all emo and hanging out at their party pad, just flaunting her vulnerable cute girl killability. It has also been widely reported that she made fun of really uncute goth boy Yuri Mozhnov for being a florist and she was just really emo, ya know.
So, obviously, the only rational thing for Maxim Golovatskikh and Yuri Mozhnov to do was to wait until the festivities wound down and then drown Karina Barduchian in the bathtub. And cook the tastiest parts of her remains and serve them to their unsuspecting housemate Ekaterina Zinovyeva as a hearty breakfast with potatoes.
Now I’m kind of a foodie, so I used to be curious about cannibalism. Sorta grew out of it. Just a phase I guess. There have been certain warrior tribes who ate portions of fallen foes to gain some of their power, but how much mojo can one get from a cute emo girl with a crush on a gothic boi in a band? Kellie LaPlegua recently did a performance where . . .

Treme Hubig’s New Orleans Pie
Treme Hubig’s New Orleans Pie
by Amelia G : April 12th, 2010
I love long form cable dramas and The Wire is my favorite of all time. So I’ve been looking forward to HBO’s Treme for quite some time. Treme is a brand new show created by David Simon and Eric Overmyer. David Simon created The Wire and Eric Overmyer wrote a couple episodes. Both of them did some work on it and on Homicide: Life on the Street. Eric Overmyer has also done buckets of work on Law & Order. David Simon is also responsible for Generation Kill, starring bad boy 3000-year-old vampire Alexander Skarsgård. (Okay, I’m a fan of the True Blood long form cable drama as well; like that’s a surprise.)The first episode of Treme did not disappoint. The show is named after a particularly musically important historic neighborhood in New Orleans and the first episode featured appearances by Elvis Costello and New Orleans native Kermit Ruffins, both playing themselves. I’d probably enjoy the show more if New Orleans music resonated with me more, but the general musical lifestyle does resonate, I’ve spent quite a bit of time in New Orleans, I like the food, and I feel like post-Katrina resilience and during-Katrina failures are really important for the USA to examine as a nation. The folks behind this show are not ones to shy away from difficult or important issues. If Treme is anything like The Wire, and I expect it will be, the show will probably demonstrate a full spectrum of viewpoints on problems and solutions. Just one episode in, they’ve already jumped in with both feet on the issues of corruption on government contracts, the economic peculiarities of New Orleans, and . . .

The New New Deal or Keeping Pot Illegal
The New New Deal or Keeping Pot Illegal
by Amelia G : April 9th, 2010
Mark Frauenfelder at Boing Boing reports that Humboldt County farmers are sporting bumper stickers saying:Keep Pot Illegal
For the non-Californians amongst you, Humboldt County is an area in California which is sufficiently north of San Francisco that it might as well be hippie Oregon. And the November ballot here in California is going to have a referendum on whether marijuana should be entirely legalized and not solely legal for those with a prescription. Part of the idea is to tax marijuana to help California’s sagging State coffers.
Kevin Drum at Mother Jones reports that part of the concern is that a black market supports farmer profits and Big Tobacco will just snarf all the market share, should pot be legalized. Sam Quinones at the Los Angeles Times reports that wholesale prices for cultivated cannabis have dropped 25% just since the farmacy legal medical marijuana dispensaries have proliferated. The LA Times says, “Humboldt State economists guess that marijuana accounts for between $500 million and $700 million of the county’s $3.6 billion economy.” Apparently, in harvest season, part time marijuana trimmers seasonal help can make $25 an hour, to supplement their usual work. That is a lot of money in the current economy.</p>
So basically we are going to get what folks got in trade for the last Depression i.e. a bunch of New Deal stuff which only takes care of some people and the government can’t afford and an end to Prohibition so we . . .

Hello Kitty Wine is Real
Hello Kitty Wine is Real
by Amelia G : April 6th, 2010
I’m still not sure whether the Hello Kitty Beer was an actual Sanrio product. I’m thinking someone I know would have brought some to a party if it were. However, it is absolutely confirmed that there will now be a whole line of Hello Kitty wines. Not whines like, “I really want the citrine Hello Kitty diamond ring” or “I really have to have advance access to Capcom’s Monster Hunter Diary: Poka Poka Felyne Village featuring Hello Kitty“. I mean wines, with no H, but with, like, ya know, booze and stuff. I admit that I am not a wine aficionado. It seems out of character, I know, but I prefer beer (or honestly sparkling water.) I’m a total foodie, but I have a middle-brow taste in champagne (Veuve Clicquot Demi-Sac and Moet White Star, thanks for asking.) and I treat wine pretty much like parsley i.e. a garnish I occasionally enjoy something cooked in but would never consume on its own.</p>
Nonetheless, I think a bottle of Hello Kitty Wine would make a pretty bitchin’ party item or housewarming gift. MWC is distributing an assortment of Hello Kitty wine too, so you’ll have what to choose from. Maybe I’d even enjoy the Hello Kitty Brut Rose.
Usually the sorts of brands people passionately fall in love with are also the sort they then have pissy break-ups with (i.e. Starbucks), but Sanrio . . .

Blue Blood Hearts Michael Lore’s Tits n’ Ass and Police Fantasy Football
Blue Blood Hearts Michael Lore’s Tits n’ Ass and Police Fantasy Football
by Amelia G : April 5th, 2010
My friend David J. Schow sent me this hilarious article on how a Police Fantasy Football League is the scourge of New Rochelle. Apparently, a bunch of police officers in New Rochelle like to play fantasy football and bet on the games. I’m not intimately familiar with New Rochelle politics, but betting on fantasy football seems like a pretty innocuous way to socialize with co-workers. I would guess the New Rochelle community as a whole would be safer if the local law enforcement folks got to know one another, via a PFFL or something similar, given that most groups work together better if they also have fun together sometimes too.
The outraged peeps at New Rochelle Talk have apparently edited together a Download Page for XXX-Rated Tour of NRPD P.A.C.T. Unit Officers PFFL Web site. According to City of New Rochelle Has “No Comment” on XXX-Rated P.F.F.L. Web Site Published by Current and Former NRPD Officers, if this video delivers as advertised, it will contain, among other things, “an animated image as a “naked” “female” snowman passes by a “male” snowman is aroused, his penis appears and grows so large that he tips over, face first, into the snow” and “A Powerpoint Slide Show of five photos of a transexual.” I tried to watch the video, but it was too boring. Can somebody else please watch it and tell me whether or not this video is a derivative work based in part on some of my photography?
Full disclosure: This is extra-humorous to me because I attended religious school in New Rochelle for a while, when my family lived in Westchester. My brother got in trouble there (at school, not with the law) for doing a successful judo throw on a bully twice his size and age. New Rochelle also had a toy store with Transformers types of toys and a pet store with a cool fish tank section nearby and I liked both of those.
Tits ‘N’ Ass’ Team and the Nude Woman with the Chainsaw PenisThe single most disturbing team and team web site in the PFFL is Michael Lore’s team Tits ‘N’ Ass which displays an image of a nude woman holding a large chainsaw (right). A Google image search for “nude tattoo chainsaw” returned, as the first result, the same photo on Lore’s team page. The woman in the photo models, acts and performs under the stage name “Spurna” and she is described as a “goth” porn star on several web sites which we will not link to here. The image on Lore’s site were copied from Barely Evil, a goth porn site. They were part of a series of photos taken at the home of David J. Schow a well-known horror writer whose film credits include screenplays for A Nightmare on Elm Street . . .

Easter at the Harvard Club Leads to Naked Punks with Bunny Ears and Plushes
Easter at the Harvard Club Leads to Naked Punks with Bunny Ears and Plushes
by Amelia G : April 2nd, 2010
When I was around five-years-old, my father took me to the Easter Egg Hunt at the Harvard Club. Everything was colorful and I loved the puzzle of looking for all the hidden things. It was like hide-and-seek only better. When my father pointed out that I could find more foil-wrapped candies by looking for a glint in the grass, from a distance, when the sunlight hit them, I thought he was pretty much the most brilliant person on the planet. It was awesome. I thought we should go to events like this basically every weekend.Children weren’t usually allowed to run around and play at the Harvard Club. Heck, I’m not sure what year they even started letting grown female alumni in, much less playful little girls. I don’t think I knew what Easter was at the time. I certainly could not have held forth on how it was a holiday the early Christians copied many Pagan tropes from, in the successful attempt to subvert the rites of spring into a celebration for a slaughtered deity who walked on earth and came back to life vampire zombie style. I’m not sure I even knew what a yearly holiday was at the time. Or a year. I probably really did ask to go do it again every weekend. Eventually I was told that we were not going to do it again.
This is pretty much my childhood in a nutshell: I was privileged to do one or another fabulous thing briefly and then it was taken away with no explanation a child could understand.
I somewhat predictably ended up pioneering erotica where every day could be a holiday, in this case Halloween.
I had intended to . . .

Sea Monsters in Butter Sauce
Sea Monsters in Butter Sauce
by Amelia G : April 1st, 2010
My friend Funkatron called my attention to the impending sea monster invasion with his usual calm cool and collected demeanor: “Yep, the robot is coming up, looks gooHOLY FUCKING SHIT OH MY GOD OH MY GOD GAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH” That would be the precise quote.Apparently, in these last days before the apocalypse, even scientists require something called a “green gossip” site in the form of something named Ecorazzi. Catchy name anyway. At any rate, Ecorazzi reports that the creepy sea monster pictured here (and way bigger on their blog where you should totally check it out) is real. It is something called an isopod and was found somehow attached to a robot submersible which was sent down 8,500 feet in the Atlantic to see what it could see. Apparently, what it saw was a little horror-movie-invasion-from-the-sea. Which was still stuck to the robot sub when it got back to the surface, where us land people reside.
My family used to like to go to Cape Cod and Maine in the summertime. So I ate a lot of lobster as a kid. I don’t eat it in California, even when menus have it, because lobster travels poorly. They ship it live, but this is (a) kind of inhumane from the perspective of someone who buys eggs laid by free range . . .
